This is an interfaith group who's members are from different spiritual paths and who share their perspectives on various religious topics.
Proselytizers need not apply (our first rule) -- there is a difference between sharing your faith's perspective and trying to convince another participant to switch to your faith.
At the same time, the emphasis is on discussing what you do believe and / or practice, not on what you don't believe, as we are not a debate group (we are not into wrong making, and this is our second rule.)
Our third rule is to share page space in the discussion threads, to allow others to participate, the same way it is done with in-person group discussions.

A few years ago, Anne Rice might have been the most unlikely candidate for becoming a leading Christian writer. But when the famous vampire novelist rediscovered her faith, she began a series of books on Jesus and a memoir of reconversion.
Anne Rice will be visiting this group to discuss the memoir, CALLED OUT OF DARKNESS, and her other titles. Feel free to leave questions for her in the forums below, and, while you wait, discuss her books among yourselves.

Have you ever wondered how people really lived in biblical times? Or if it’s really possible to obey all those tricky, and seemingly nonsensical, biblical rules? In his new book, THE YEAR OF LIVING BIBLICALLY, author A.J. Jacobs does just that — and now he’s discussing his story with Beliefnet members. From playing the harp on New York City streets to hammering idols and stoning adulterers, Jacobs has a remarkable journey. Join the book club to meet A.J., ask questions and get the inside scoop his year-long biblical life, and join his thoughtful — and hilarious -investigation into faith.
THE YEAR OF LIVING BIBLICALLY is the December 2007 Featured Book of the Exploring Faith Book Club.
